Facebook is exploring a technology that controls temperatures in the data center by automatically moving software workloads among servers according to the air pressure on either side of each machine. The system uses a load balancer to shift tasks among servers based on their particular “cooling needs,” which are related to air pressure in the data center. The idea is to keep … [Read more...]
Wireless Sensor System Provides Web-Based Monitoring
The new NEWPORT® zSeries wireless sensor system provides Web-based monitoring of Temperature, Humidity, and Barometric Pressure in critical applications. The compact wireless “End Devices” mount discretely on the wall in clean rooms, laboratories, and any remote facility. The End Devices transmit up to 300 feet (without obstructions) to a “Coordinator” connected directly to an … [Read more...]
Bottlenecks and Interface Materials; Part 3 – Relieving Thermal Bottlenecks Reduce Temperatures
As with all good inventions, you quickly wonder how on earth you could have done without them before. Relieving thermal bottlenecks reduce temperatures; it’s so blindingly obvious. Now that we have the ability to visualise with FloTHERM exactly where the thermal bottlenecks are in a design, the job of the (overworked/underpaid) thermal design engineer just got that more … [Read more...]
